Overview

Canada’s solar market is gaining momentum unevenly across provincial and territorial markets. Industry feedback points to stronger interest in solar paired with storage, while differing energy policies and relatively segregated electricity systems continue to shape the pace of deployment. Québec has introduced a solar incentive, illustrating the role of provincial programs in driving activity.
